- The Lamanites make multiple charges at the city’s entrance, but are soundly defeated at each attempt.
- Seeing that the main entrance is impenetrable, the Lamanites try tear down the large dirt ridges surrounding the city, but are again stopped in the process, and the ditches surrounding the city are filled with the dead bodies of the fallen soldiers.
- Eventually, all of the Lamanite commanding officers are killed, and thousands of Lamanite soldiers die; on the other side, the Nephites suffer only about fifty injuries, and no casualties.
- The surviving Lamanites retreat back to the land of Nephi, and report their miserable defeat to Amalickiah, who becomes furious, vowing and not only to kill Moroni, but also to drink his blood.
- Meanwhile, the Nephites thank God and enjoy some peace and Alma’s sons, and the sons of Mosiah continue their ministries in the church.
